Cougars Rally Past Shockers
WICHITA, Kan. – Houston scored four runs in the top of the sixth to erase a 3-1 deficit, rallying past Wichita State 7-4 on Friday night at Eck Stadium.
The decisive frame began with three straight baserunners against WSU starter Jace Kaminska (2-7), who had handcuffed the Cougars through five innings with eight strikeouts. With the bases loaded and nobody out, Kaminska got a fly out to right for the first out of the inning, but Ian McMillan bounced a ground ball to deep shortstop for an infield single that scored a run, and Malachi Lott followed with a hooking double into the right field corner that cleared the bases for a 5-3 lead.
